Dream

He felt his eyes slowly start to close as he drifted into sleep. His eyes then awoke once again, but he was not at home. He was debating whether this was going to be a good or bad dream.

He was just about to pinch his arm to wake himself up, but he stopped midway. He remembered what his parents and the whole community had said. They said that dreams were dangerous. That they were an evil thing that should never be experienced.

They said that even a good dream can turn into a nightmare. They said that whenever you start to have a dream to pinch yourself or jump off a cliff, since you can not die in a dream. 

He has been doing that for the past 13 years. It's just that this time, something was stopping him. He found himself walking into the cold fog.
